PODCASTS & MIXES

Melbourne’s Kavil presents ABSORBED, a new bimestrial journal entry and extension of the Absorb label’s sweeping interests. Unwonted electronic and acoustic sound, “wait-for-it” listening.

Formerly on Skylab Radio.

ABSORBED - Mix Series

Fantaisies (longues) series no. 24

Rich landscapes of sounds, with a great variety of everything audible, and perhaps not. If this were paint, I would say as much figurative as abstract, as brutal as sophisticated, as hard as soft, bright-dark, as line oriented as surface/texture as color... and on and on. It's wide open. (not much beat)

created 2021/11/17

sets uploaded between 0_/2021 and 12/2021, with the following older exceptions (ref date: 2021/0_/__):

[TO BE COMPLETED]

This should help free your mind a little, like some drugs do, from the increasingly omnipresent daily routines, if you listen.

Clemency presents ‘Drum Circles Against Lamentation & The Crude Foyer’ - a two track single on 2 B REAL, drawing on Dub & Bleep Techno.

Following 2020’s highly acclaimed ‘References’ EP, this record sees Clemency lean further into her hypnotic dance stylings with two new cuts resolutely facing the dancefloor.

On the A side ‘Drum Circles Against Lamentation’ lays a mesmeric drum loop over tightly wound percussion and sub bass slugs to create an almost runaway momentum. On the flip, ‘The Crude Foyer’ sees Clemency plumbing the depths of atmospheric tension, building an imposing wall of moody sound over a slow motion beat.

The artwork comes courtesy of Jamie Hudson once again.

Melantónia Show x Fango Radio (08.11.2021) curated by @Hanna_Maria_Melantonia.

Straight after the release on @annulled_music, the next artist is Klara Vedis, giving us here a taste of her ambient project as Vedis.
Coming from the Land of the Sun, her musical talent blossomed in early childhood and nourished in a classical music school as a soprano singer. After mutual band attempts as a teen, she returns to her psychedelic roots, rediscovering a new sense of meaning between the technological and organic realms. 
She has recently appeared with her original works also on VA compilations for Warok Music, Charybdis, Deep Electronics, as well as presented some of her yet unreleased music on the Hypnus Memoirs.


Hosting a monthly show focused on atmospheric music in a local online radio, she started inviting artists and labels to showcase their work.

Noémi Büchi 10/07/22

@noemibuchi x Avant Radio

"In this mix I want to manifest my passion, respect and love for all the selected artists, and bring together different worlds of musical genius. The aesthetic commonality that connects all these works has allowed me to enter into dialogue with the artist by including unreleased live recordings of myself. I am interested and inspired to observe how different, similar or even very different musical worlds function, but also to discover the universal commonality, the unique power of music through it, which no other medium in art expresses the way music does.
I'm mainly interested in compositional ideas and processes and I am fascinated by certain happenings in these selected passages. The power of innovation is both startlingly beautiful and almost frightening at the same time. With this mixing work I want to enter and influence this innovative power, by setting sounds, passages or accents in a new way. It triggers an indescribable euphoria in me.
Thank you very much for all this wonderful music, and thank you for listening."

Noémi Büchi is a Swiss/French composer and sound artist that creates electronic, symphonic maximalism. Her music is defined by a delicate synthesis of textural rhythms and electroacoustic- orchestral abstraction. She explores the potential of consonance and dissonance, contrasts rhythmic physicality with disruption and playfully emphasizes irregularities, creating an expansive listening experience marked by detail and elevation.
After her studies in electroacoustic composition, musicology and german literature, she already played at various festivals and was awarded a culture prize of the city of Zürich. Her 2019 debut EP ‘Matière’, released through Light of Other Days, drew widespread acclaim. In 2020, she released a second EP ‘Prismic Passages’ on the Leipzig- based tape label Visible Dinner. -OUS Records will be releasing her debut album ‘Matter’ and its prelude ‘Hyle’ in 2022, as well as the debut album of Musique Infinie, a collaboration between Noémi Büchi and Swiss/Italian composer and installation artist Feldermelder.
She explores the potential of consonance and dissonance, contrasts rhythmic physicality with disruption and playfully emphasizes irregularities, creating an expansive listening experience marked by detail and elevation.

The next offering on the mix series is here, courtesy of enigmatic DJ, producer & Nyege Nyege affiliate, Hibo Elmi aka Hibotep.

MC Yallah / @user-724951916 on Hibotep: A walking, breathing example of the diversity of Kampala's arts and cultural scene, Hibo Elmi is, amongst other things, a filmmaker, fashion designer and installation artist. A self-described cultural nomad, her one rule is that rules are there for breaking. A philosophy that extends to her DJ sets where trap, hip hop, house are combined with taraab, gnawa and other Arabic influences to collide into a vibrant contemporary sonic collage.

Ashley Woodward on Hibotep: I’ve been lucky enough to see Hibotep play rooftops, festivals, bars, clubs, backyards - and it’s always a sonic adventure. One night in Kampala before a gig, I was hanging at Hibo’s whilst she prepared for the upcoming set. You could hear the excitement building from within as Hibo filled her bag with a collection of music ‘totally new and different’ to what she had performed recently. I could probably have been forgiven for wondering why there was a need for change when those recent gigs had gone so well, but that’s not Hibo’s style. A passion for underground artists, a champion of sounds from diverse communities, a commitment to freedom of self expression and to challenge oneself creatively is what I would consider authentically Hibotep. And so it was - another amazing journey of moods, music and rhythms had the club swinging, and for myself a reminder from Hibo to keep an open mind, keep searching and keep listening.

NBDKNW NON-STOP MIX SERIES NO. 5
Round. 4 : bela “reconnect”
.
Newtowns spreading through the empty lands of suburbia share the sense of alienation and uneasiness from the characteristic, tightly controlled landscapes and architectural looks -
twelve participants each went through a process of voluntarily collecting images of the newtown environments and compiled together corresponding soundscapes by association, providing free sonic interpretations of suburban atmospheres of South Korea.
•
교외의 빈 땅을 채워나가는 뉴타운들은 특유의 숨막힐듯 짜여진 조경과 건축물에서 비롯된 이질감과 스산함을 공유한다. 이를 포착한 이미지들을 자발적으로 수집하고 그 아스팔트 계곡에 흐르는 사운드스케이프를 믹스의 형태로 엮어내는 과정을 거쳐, 열두 명의 참가자들은 남한의 교외적 정서를 각자의 관점에서 자유롭게 해석한다.
•
“reconnect”
shot pictures of a planned city arrested in time and traced along the monotonous system optimized for maintaining homeostasis. malls with few customers / eight-lane road with small traffic / families out on a picnic at an open field / surrounding farmland full of green on the outskirts of the high-rise apartment complexes.
•
시간이 멈춘 교외의 한 신도시 곳곳을 사진으로 찍어 인체의 항상성 유지에 최적화된, 단조로운 교외 도시의 시스템을 탐사한다. 손님이 없는 아울렛 매장 / 통행이 뜸한 8차선 도로 / 너른 풀밭에 소풍을 나온 가족 / 고층 아파트 밀집 구역 바깥의 초록으로 가득한 근교 농지.
